I mean, good for the portion of the population who are being relieved of their obligations.
Not so good news for the social programs that their debt was, through the democratic process, intended to fund, and for the rest of us for whom those programs were intended to serve.

They should have changed to better sources of funding before cutting out this source.
@volkris@qoto.org If social programs are being funded by student loan debt on middle class / poor people. I think we could figure out a much better way to handle it....say, taxing the rich?
